AVERY BAILEY CLARK'S HISTORY

Avery was first seen in Genoa City when Victor hired her to try to get Sharon out of prison. At the same time Avery succeeded in getting Sharon a re-trial, it came to light that she was Phyllis's estranged younger sister.

Avery had an affair with Nick, and helped Daisy get released from jail, which didn't help her relationship with her Phyllis. Later, after their father passed away, and some truths came to light, the sisters began to reconcile. Avery became her sister's attorney, and promised to help her discredit Tim Reid in the case of Phyllis's old hit-and-run. When Avery learned that Phyllis had been paying Tim off, she refused to represent her any longer. Phyllis had an affair with Ronan Malloy, so Avery once again took up with Nick. She began bonding with Summer and soon revealed to Nick some of her past. She had had an affair on her husband, Joe, with Dylan McAvoy, who was presumed dead while fighting in Afghanistan. When Avery began working for the Innocence Foundation, Dylan, who was very much alive, made his way to Genoa City to reconnect with Avery. Avery told Dylan she was in love with Nick, but they kissed, and he decided to stay in town. Avery became engaged to Nick, but there were challenges. His daughter Faith never warmed up to Avery, and Dylan, although involved with Chelsea, was still in her orbit. Avery and Nick found Phyllis at the bottom of a stairwell and Avery, along with Jack, Daniel, and Summer, decided to set her up in a facility in Georgia as she was in a coma and showed no signs of coming out. Avery continued to have issues with Faith as her wedding day approached, and when the time came, Avery chose to help Dylan, who came to her distraught over Connor not being his son, and was late to her wedding ceremony. Nick broke up with her.

Avery and Dylan rekindled their romance and dealt with him finding out that Nikki Newman was his birth mother. They also dealt with the conniving Ian Ward, when for a time it was believed he was Dylan's biological father. Later, Paul Williams was revealed to be Dylan's real dad. Avery was stunned when Phyllis showed up in Genoa City under her own steam having woken up from the coma in Georgia. Avery and Dylan began fighting to save his business, Crimson Lights, and the warehouse district from developers, including her ex-husband, Joe Clark, who came to town to head up the project for Victor Newman. Joe wants Avery back and has kissed her and pleaded for another chance. Avery accepted Dylan's proposal and after Joe made another play for her, she told Dylan she wanted to get married right away.

In Avery's office she is contemplating Gabriel's two signatures when Phyllis arrives. She says Kelly Andrews is dead. Avery says she suffered tragedy in her life. Phyllis calls Avery a bleeding heart. She says she and Jack are going to slip off and marry - she would have asked her to be her maid-of-honor. Avery is glad Phyllis is no longer angry with her and mentions Joe's absolved her for past sins as well. Phyllis thinks he's still in love with her. Jack arrives and Avery asks how well he knows Gabriel - he acted like he'd never heard of the charity his family founded and his signature is off. Later, Nick arrives and tells Avery to alter his custody agreement with Sharon to give her one day a week with Faith.

At Crimson Lights, Nick greets Adam, who wonders if he's going to pretend he didn't have sex with his wife. He clarifies that he wants his wife to be discreet so they don't get caught and lose the money. Adam brings up Sharon and Nick wonders why he's hostile. Avery appears and Nick introduces her to 'Gabriel'. She mentions the charity and he says he'll make a donation. Stunned, Avery says it's his charity. Adam tries to cover and signs her papers. After, Avery and Nick marvel that he trusted Avery and doesn't even know her.

On the coffee house patio, Dylan tells Noah he doesn't think Sharon's off her meds, but someone is messing with her. He tells Noah about the mirror message. Noah stops him from calling the police and says Abby got messages too. Dylan joins Nick and Avery and says he has something to take care of.
